Formulation Optimization of Cladophora glomerata (Kai)-Based 3D Food Inks Using Xanthan Gum and Konjac Gum for Dysphagia-Friendly Applications

Three-dimensional (3D) food printing has emerged as a promising approach for producing texture-modified foods for individuals with dysphagia. However, developing stable food inks from freshwater macroalgae remains challenging due to the need for suitable rheological, structural,...

The Influence of Rheological Properties on the Adhesiveness of Food Waste and Its Implications for Mechanical Separation

Abstract The viscoelastic and adhesive properties of food waste materials are critical factors influencing the efficiency of mechanical separation processes in waste management. This study investigated the moisture-dependent rheological behavior─specifically storage modulus in bo...

Early Classification of Impact- and Vibration-Induced Bruising in ‘Glom Sali’ Guava Using RGB Imaging and Deep Learning

Mechanical damage is a major cause of postharvest quality deterioration in guava, and early discrimination of bruises caused by impact and vibration remains challenging due to visually indistinguishable peel bruising. This study investigated the feasibility of deep learning-based...

Integrated Active Breaks Improve Discomfort, Cervicoscapular Electromyographic Responses, and Typing Performance in Computer Users at Risk of Neck Pain: A Randomized Crossover Trial

Neck–shoulder disorders are common among computer users, yet the effects of integrated active breaks (IABs) on discomfort, electromyographic (EMG) responses, and typing performance remain unclear. This randomized crossover trial compared neck–shoulder discomfort, cervicoscapular...

Factors associated with inadequate and problematic sexual health literacy among hill tribe junior high school students in northern Thailand

Sexual health literacy (SHL) is an important factor in preventing sexually transmitted infections (STIs) among junior high school students, particularly in middle- to lower-income countries, including Thailand. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with SHL among h...

Microwave-Assisted Extraction of a Quercetin-Containing Onion Leaf Extract for Potential Anti-Aging Cosmetic Applications

Onion (Allium cepa L.) is one of the most widely cultivated vegetables worldwide, while its leaves are discarded as agricultural waste despite being a valuable source of bioactive compounds. This study aims to investigate anti-aging cosmetic potential of onion leaf extract obtain...

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene sequences of Aphaniops dispar

The Arabian killifish ( Aphaniops dispar ) is a resilient freshwater species capable of surviving extreme environments, making it a valuable model for studying evolutionary adaptation in challenging environments. This study provides baseline genetic information of A. dispar popul...

Pure Mycelium Sheets from Edible Mushrooms for Sustainable Packaging: A Comparative Assessment of Glycerol and ZnONPs Treatment

Increasingly, mycelium-based biomaterials are being investigated as sustainable alternatives to conventional packaging materials, but their inherent brittleness limits their practical application. The present study investigated the properties of pure mycelium sheets sourced from...

Effects of Adding BreatheMAX-Assisted Deep Breathing to Home-Based Spot Marching on Maximal Voluntary Ventilation and Peak Expiratory Flow in Young Adults with Overweight or Obesity: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Background: Overweight and obesity adversely affect respiratory mechanics and ventilatory capacity. This study evaluated the incremental effects of combined Spot Marching Exercise and BreatheMAX-assisted deep breathing (CSMEB) versus Spot Marching Exercise alone (SME) on pulmonar...

Assessment of the Genetic Diversity and Population Structure of a Wild Tea Germplasm Collection in Thailand Using SSR Markers

Tea [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze] is the most widely consumed beverage worldwide and also has significant economic crop value. Understanding the genetic diversity and population structure of wild tea plants by analyzing their germplasm is essential for effective collection,...

Optimized Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction Enhances the Recovery of Anti-Collagenase Phytochemicals from Mitragyna speciosa Korth. Leaves

Mitragyna speciosa Korth. (Kratom) is a plant native to Southeast Asia, traditionally used for its stimulant and analgesic properties. Beyond mitragynine, the principal alkaloid dominating M. speciosa research, this study explored the cosmeceutical and nutraceutical potential of...
